Saltwater nose drops for babies with bronchiolitis
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving babies saltwater (isotonic saline) as a mist can help them breathe easier when they have bronchiolitis, a common lung infection in infants. The treatment is simple and may reduce symptoms like coughing and trouble breathing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby is between 0 and 12 months old
- Your baby has symptoms of bronchiolitis, such as a runny nose, a dry persistent cough, or trouble breathing
- Your baby does not have cystic fibrosis or other serious lung conditions present from birth
- Your baby has not started treatment with a quick-relief inhaler (called a short-acting beta-2 agonist) during this illness

This study looks at how children with bronchiolitis (a common lung infection in babies) respond to breathing treatments. It will also check if genes or other traits play a role. The goal is to better understand which treatments work best.
This study tests whether lavender essential oil chest wraps help babies hospitalized with bronchiolitis breathe easier and recover faster. If effective, it could offer a natural way to soothe breathing difficulties.
This study tests whether breathing in a salty mist helps babies with bronchiolitis recover faster than a plain water mist. It could ease breathing and reduce hospital stay.
This trial tests whether a seawater spray can help clear blocked noses in babies with their first episode of bronchiolitis. The goal is to see if it improves breathing and keeps babies out of the hospital.
